Trying to sub to their forum on lemmy.dbzero.com but getting a server error when I enter lemmy.world to subscribe from. Does that mean it’s defederated from lemmy.world?

I’ve had two QNAP NAS fail on me, never again. The first failed shortly after the 3-year warranty expired and was MSRP $600. The second failed right before warranty expiration with MSRP $1200 thinking a better unit would be less prone to fail, but alas.

Thankfully I was able to RMA to get my data back (proprietary RAID), and while waiting on RMA to return, built a custom TrueNAS server I can service all parts on myself for around the same cost of a new NAS. Sold the RMA unit on eBay to recoup some cost as well. All I ever ran on those units was Plex and Samba\NFS file shares. Never again.

Proton is amazing though. I got Lego LotR working on my steam deck by installing some DirectX 9 dependency to fix a graphical glitch with the game. Runs like a dream.

What instance did you go to then? I don’t keep up on “the best” instances, or those that defederate or block certain things. I was part of kbin.social at first, then moved to .world.

My boss puts it best. WebEx for Calling, Zoom for Meetings and Teams for Collaboration (the actual Teams function).

Plex is a taboo topic anymore because of their recent business-focused changes. I personally use Plex as I’ve been a user since the early 2000s with no intentions to learn the nuances of Jellyfin, and get my remote streamers moved over to it.

Plex mixed with Sonarr, Radarr and Overseer fits my needs perfectly.

Do you have internal DNS set up? I have my wire guard deployed on both of my pihole servers, which have local DNS entries for my internal services, which point back to my internal Traefik container for NAT translations. I know that sounds a bit complicated, but that’s how it works for my environment.

It’s literally maintained by Fedora. Not sure why he claimed that.

After I kbin.socials constant issues I moved to Leemy.world and like it a lot better. I miss magazines as opposed to communities, but it’s pot-ato po-tato and there don’t seem to be any outages.

I’ll raise you one and attach a mount point over iscsi!

I’ve been running mailcow for almost 2 years with no issues. I’m not doing anything major with it, mainly using it to send myself alerts on the environment, but it does work for external purposes if I want it to as well. Updating is easy and seamless. I did get greylisted almost immediately though, so I use SMTP2Go and it works great as a free relay for the amount of mail I generate.
